[quote=Anonymous]my daughter is 12 and same thing happened this year. adhd but unmedicated. She started her period in May and weight gain started in fall - much around her mid section. She doesn't seem bothered by it but would say she is pudgy or chubby. I am assuming it is either growing out before up or her coming into her natural body, which will be more heavyset based on dad's genes Her appetite went from 0-60 though there is some bedtime eating that is about delaying sleep due to anxiety. She eats a lot but only healthy food at home. I'm still focused on protein and fat for growth. Exercise is the missing piece. At 16 your daughter is likely done growing? but 15 pounds doesn't seem a lot for a full gown woman. er ritalin is pretty standard but you could try the non generic version or a different generic?[/quote]
